9:30 Coffee Break: Winter Carnival

January 24, 2013

Winter Carnival
Today kicks off the Winter Carnival.
Winter Carnival

Here in Minnesota we've been battling epic winter weather. But, as always comes this time of year, a beacon of winter fun and happiness pops up to force Minnesotans to pretend that it's perfectly wonderful to hang outside with your friends. That's right, today kicks off the Winter Carnival. Get the hand and foot warmers out and bundle up, because there is a whole winter wonderland happening outside of your door.

We've been struck with a little bit of cabin fever and the cold gusts of wind might do the trick to get us through these next few weeks of hyper cold weather. How about a Winter Carnival themed 9:30 Coffee Break? The songs can cover any Winter Carnival theme (royalty, skating, outdoors, etc.). What should we play?

Songs Played:

Led Zeppelin - "Immigrant Song"

The Fiery Furnaces - "Restorative Beer"

Husker Du - "Ice Cold Ice"

U2 - "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"

Queen - "Killer Queen"

Squeeze - "Cool for Cats"
